Rhys,
No big deal on routing the cables.
The radar (on the port side) has both power and control cables bound
together back into a galley cabinet where they split. The
control/signal cable heads aft through the a large storage volume we
call "the hold" on it's way to the stern mounted radar tower and the
power cable turns inboard into another cabiner behind the ladder where
all out pumps are (pressure water, sump pump out, etc). It is connected
to a fuse block in there.

The gps/fishfinder's power cable snakes under some molding to the DC
distribution panel. It's transducer and GPS antenna cables enter the
pump cabinet where the the swing out arm is mounted. From there, the
transducer cab;e goes down along the side of the engine compartment and
into the bilge where it goes forward to the transducer. The gps antenna
cable goes down into the engine copartment, then aft under the floor of
the hold to the stern, then up throughthe deck at the base of the radar
tower.

Exactly. Would love to see pictures and how you routed the power and
other cables to (presumably) the nav station/DC panel.
